Uh, this is EXTREEEEEMLY old folks....
This happened last year to the day. (well, 1 day off)
oddly enough, it happened in my hometown, on the very road I travel daily.
As for the videos on the net, you are right there is the one leaked from my local news station. I have it, its of him blowing up. Saw it once, and never watched it again. Looked almost fake, but you knew inside that he just died against his will.
